The whole world is your sweet, sweet home! We love traveling! And we really know what it means when you have to spend 10 or 15 hours waiting on uncomfortable seats at the airport lounges, not being able to spread yourself comfortably on a sofa, and forget about that beloved rocking chair or comfy slippers you are used to enjoy at home so much. Being a passenger is a challenge.

The “with a pinch of salt shaker” emulates the gesture of putting “a pinch of salt” in a meal. The user simply slides the halves of the shaker, as if handling the salt directly. As the halves slide past each other an opening is formed, out of which the salt is disposed. This gives the user a lot of control over the amount of salt released. When the shaker is not being used, the salt is protected from moisture – and as such the salt remains dry and crisp, as is waits to be used in the next meal.

Due to a flapping-mechanism the “FLAPcam” provides many features of existing cameras in a completely new way and even adds new ones. If it’s folded up, the lens, display and buttons are protected against dirt and scratches. Depending on how much the camera is flipped opened the user can either make photos of himself or take photos from above (e.g. at live concerts).
